slipjig3I know I'm asking for big fat honking trouble on this one, but:
The 2003 Movie Survey, LJ Edition
What I need from everyone is a list of your 10 favorite movies of all time, in order (i.e. #1 is "greatest", #2 is "2nd greatest", etc.) Results will be posted here in a few weeks. Only one list per customer, please.
How the scores will be tabulated: The winning movies will be determined by a count of total votes received. Ties will be broken according to total number of "points": A movie in the #1 spot on someone's list will get 10 points for that list, a movie in the #2 spot will get 9 points, etc.
A little background: I've done this survey countless times over the years. I used to do albums instead of movies, until I realize that music tastes are generally too fragmented to produce a good final tally; movies, on the other hand, are closer to being a "shared experience". I've administered the movie survey twice in the last few years among family and friends (the results of which I may post at a future date) whenever boredom struck hard. Unfortunately, said friends and family are now sick to death of it, although if any of them are reading this, they are more than welcome to chime in again. Thus, I've decided to lob it out into the LJ community and see what sticks. If I become buried alive in responses, tell Kristi I love her, and tell Abbey she can have my GameBoy. If I am utterly ignored, 't will be a most adequate deterrent to future such silliness.
Oh, and could you all either link to this and/or meme it out for me? Thanks!

That's all three parts of LotR, even the one that hasn't come out yet. Can I do that? I want to change my vote!
